A project controller is a member of a project management team that focuses on the financial health of a project. As a project controller, you work for consulting firms that provide management services related to information technology or human resources projects. You often interact directly with the project manager to define goals, and with clients to review project pricing and financial budget reports. Your job duties also include analyzing progress reports and monitoring the schedule to help ensure the effort is finished on time and under budget. On top of communication skills, having the ability to analyze financial aspects such as cost, revenue, and risk is crucial to your job as a project controller. Although a wide range of qualifications is common for this career, most project controllers have a graduate degree in business, accounting, or finance. Experience as a consultant or accountant is also typical.

| Work Environment | Construction sites, engineering firms, large projects | Office settings, project teams, administrative support |
| Certifications | PMI-SP, CAPM, or similar financial/project management certifications | None typically required, but PMP or CAPM can be beneficial |
